• 1. What is a “telescreen”? How is it different from the televisions we know? Is it possible to make a television that could see and hear everything in the room? Could such a device be used for discovering criminals and terrorists? Could it be used for political control? Would it be a good idea to install such a device in every household?
  2. What are the four government ministries that control the world of Big Brother? In our own society, we have departments in the federal government, such as the Department of Defense and the Department of Education. Are these the same as the ministries in Oceania? How are they different?
